Intentional Chocolate - Very Cool Idea!

Recently, I was introduced to an amazing company, International Chocolate. Not only is their chocolate outstanding (and yes, I have sampled some - OK, many) but their company mission and vision are inspiring.

I am now sending a box of Intentional Chocolate to each new client. As for you folks who worked with me before Intentional Chocolate, never fear - your box will be in the mail on your one year policy anniversary!

Here is a little bit about their research based approach and philosophy. You will also find a link to the company website on the left side of my blog.

The gratitude I have received from the recipients of these wonderful little chocolates has solidified in my mind the power of positive intentions!

Try some and see what the buzzzzz is all about!

Chocolate and Intention Research

Positive intention is a thought, a prayer, or a blessing. Positive intention is also an offering to the world at large or to a friend in need and can come from the pure desire to help another. There is a growing body of evidence that suggests that intention invokes measurable power and energy that can manifest across space and time.

Researchers all around the world, such as those at Princeton, Harvard and the Max Planck Institute are studying the power of intention.

The blessing of food with an intention has long been practiced within spiritual traditions and sacred ceremonies. These practices place certain energy into the food that is then offered back to benefit individuals and the community.

At Intentional Chocolate™ we not only provide a product that can be gifted as a positive intention to another person, but we strive to lead intentional and purposeful lives.

By paying attention to the effect we have on the whole through our decisions and actions we attempt to “do no harm and benefit others.”

As we move throughout our day, we hold in our minds the desire to be in service to the “we.”

We know that holding this desire is not easy. In our chaotic world filled with so many distractions and stress, people are yearning to return to simple values and meaningful relationships based on love and respect. The busier our lives become, the harder it can be to focus on positive intentions and to stick to them.
